Neurodivergence In Relationships: The Biggest Issues And How To Navigate Them
This week, we’ve covered the topic of neurodiversity from a variety of angles, including the challenges of getting diagnosed, the need for workplaces accommodations and mental health challenges that often accompany neurodivergence. Today, we’re talking about neurodiversity in relationships.

What does that mean for the relationship and how conflict is approached and addressed? Joining us to discuss our final conversation of the series is Jodi Carlton, neurodivergence relationship expert and host of the podcast “Your Neurodiverse Relationship.” We also want to hear from you.

FilmWeek Feature: Remembering Roger Corman, Storied Filmmaker, Who Passed Away At 98
Roger Corman, the “King of the Bs” who helped turn out such low-budget classics as “Little Shop of Horrors” and “Attack of the Crab Monsters” and gave many of Hollywood’s most famous actors and directors early breaks, has died. He was 98. Corman died Thursday at his home in Santa Monica, California, according to a statement released Saturday by his wife and daughters. This follows a life that started with many B-horror movies, such as the 1960 film “Little Shop of Horrors,” and helping kickstart the careers of Martin Scorsese and Jack Nicholson. Some of Corman’s work, including interviews with these film legends associated with Corman, was displayed in the 2011 documentary “Corman’s World: Exploits of a Hollywood Rebel.”
For this week’s FilmWeek feature, we talk to filmmaker Alex Stapleton, director of “Corman’s World” and LAist film critic Wade Major, about Corman’s legacy and why his loss meant so much to the film community.
